A ruthless bandit from the celestial realm, he began his cultivation journey after kidnapping the Em

Ye Chen turned to look at Lin Ningxue, saw through her thoughts, and said with a smile.

"Aren't you going to the herb garden to collect morning dew?"

"It would be such a waste to get up so early and not collect the morning dew. You just go ahead and do your work, and if you have time, collect my share too..."

"As for Meng Fan, don't worry, I have my own ways of dealing with him..."

He hasn't been to the spirit herb garden for several days now. If Lin Ningxue also misses out, the supervising elder will inevitably take notice, and that would be troublesome...

"this..."

Hearing Ye Chen say this, Lin Ningxue hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"All right!"

"Senior brother, you must be careful..."

"If you really can't beat them, just run. Don't fight them head-on..."

She didn't forget to give a few words of advice...

"Okay... Let's eat, I'm starving..." Ye Chen agreed and headed straight for the kitchen...

He was only thinking about making a living and didn't care about Meng Fan at all...

He has a celestial-grade magical artifact, what is he afraid of?

After consuming three hundred Rank 6 Spirit-Replenishing Pills yesterday, his strength increased several times over, and he no longer took Meng Fan seriously...

Even at the peak of Foundation Establishment, the advantage lies with me!

------

Xianxia Peak, Cave No. 98...

Jiang Qingyao, dressed in a long pink and white dress, sat alone at the stone table in the courtyard. The loose dress couldn't conceal her curvaceous figure, and her quiet posture accentuated her alluring curves...

She woke up very early, getting up as dawn was breaking. Now, she waited absentmindedly, glancing every now and then towards the courtyard gate, afraid of missing any sounds outside...

Last night, she and Ye Chen had agreed to meet before noon, and she was filled with anticipation, barely sleeping a wink all night. The thought of soon being able to escape Meng Fan's clutches filled her with joy...

"Knock knock knock!"

A knock came from outside the cave...

"Um?"

Jiang Qingyao was stunned for a moment, then stood up excitedly.

"Senior Brother Xu, you've arrived so early?"

She muttered something under her breath and hurried over...

Last night, when Ye Chen made the appointment before noon, she thought he wouldn't arrive until very late...

"They're here!"

Jiang Qingyao responded as she walked, afraid that the people outside the cave would get impatient...

"Boom!"

The heavy stone door slowly opened...

"Master Xu..."

Jiang Qingyao had just opened her mouth when she saw who was coming from outside the door, and she stopped talking abruptly...

"Senior Sister Wen, it's you..."

"I thought..."

She looked around the cave entrance but didn't see the figure she was hoping for, and a hint of disappointment flashed in her eyes.

Outside the cave stood a beautiful woman, dressed in a light blue dress, with a gentle and charming temperament. She held a sword in her hand and looked at Jiang Qingyao with a kind expression, revealing a smile as she spoke.

"You think it's Senior Brother Xu?"

"He probably won't come this early..."

"You didn't agree to meet before noon? Then wait a little longer..."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Qingyao nodded, looked at Wen Ning in front of her, and stepped aside to make way...

"Senior Sister Wen, please come in quickly..."

"good!"

Wen Ning agreed and quickly walked into the cave...

Jiang Qingyao glanced around again, then silently turned and went back into the courtyard...

The stone gate slowly closed.

"Senior Sister Wen, you're up so early too..."

Jiang Qingyao asked with a surprised expression.

It was only a short time since dawn, and Xianxia Peak was still quite deserted, with few disciples out and about...

Upon hearing this, Wen Ning narrowed his eyes, his expression turning cold, and said with a serious face.

"I finally managed to get Senior Brother Xu to deal with that beast. How could I miss such a rare competition!"

"We hope that Senior Brother Xu is really as powerful as the rumors say, and teaches that beast Meng Fan a lesson, so that we sisters can vent our anger..."

The mere mention of Meng Fan filled Wen Ning with hatred, and she gritted her teeth.

She had also been bullied by Meng Fan and harbored deep hatred for him. If she weren't weaker, she would have killed Meng Fan with a single sword strike long ago...

Among the spirit stones and pills that Jiang Qingyao gave to Ye Chen, there was a portion of Wen Ningcou.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Qingyao's eyes hardened, and she spoke with unwavering conviction.

"I believe in Senior Brother Xu; he will definitely defeat Meng Fan!"

Although she had never seen Ye Chen in action, after their brief encounter last night, she was filled with trust in him...

If Ye Chen agreed to help without fear of danger, what else could she possibly doubt?

Although they spent spirit stones and pills, Ye Chen was risking his life...

Wen Ning glanced at Jiang Qingyao in front of him, a hint of surprise flashing across his face. He seemed to have thought of something, and nodded thoughtfully...

"I heard that Senior Brother Xu defeated Xie Huai'an, who was ranked tenth on the outer sect disciple list, and won very easily..."

"Although he is only at the eighth level of Qi Refining, he possesses a celestial-grade magic weapon gifted by Elder Xu, so he may not necessarily lose to Meng Fan, who is at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage..."

"I hope Senior Brother Xu won't let us down..."

She also pinned all her hopes on Ye Chen; if they relied on themselves to take revenge, they would have no hope in this lifetime...

As soon as they finished speaking, the two of them were about to sit down and wait for Ye Chen to arrive.

Then, a knock came from outside the cave...

"Knock knock knock..."

"Um?"

Jiang Qingyao and Wen Ning exchanged a glance, a hint of anticipation flashing in their expressions...

"Could it be Senior Brother Xu?"

Wen Ning hesitated.

Jiang Qingyao immediately turned around and walked quickly towards the door, full of anticipation...

"Boom..."

As soon as the stone door opened, Jiang Qingyao eagerly looked outside...

"Xu..."

Before she could utter a single word, her expression changed instantly upon seeing the figure outside the door, a flicker of panic crossing her eyes.

"Meng Fan!!!"

"What...what are you doing here!"

Jiang Qingyao looked at the sinister-looking young man standing outside the cave and said in an annoyed tone.

I'm still a little scared...

The man had been lusting after her body for a long time. She would avoid him whenever they met in public, and occasionally he would block her door, scaring her so much that she dared not go out...

Meng Fan almost succeeded in his schemes several times, leaving her with psychological trauma.

If the other party succeeds, her innocence will be completely ruined.

If she hadn't been terrified, she wouldn't have gathered the pills along with her fellow disciples who had been bullied by Meng Fan before and sought Ye Chen's help...

Upon seeing Meng Fan, Jiang Qingyao panicked and made a series of guesses in her mind.

Does the other party know that I went to Senior Brother Xu for help?

Otherwise, how could they have come knocking on our door by such a coincidence?

Meng Fan brazenly sized up Jiang Qingyao before him, his lewd gaze sweeping over her fair skin. A surge of heat rose within him, a fire of desire coursing through his lower abdomen...
